What’s Cookin? Sunday Brunch 8/12: Ham, Egg & Asparagus

There is breakfast, and of course; breakfast for dinner. But on Sunday’s, there is breakfast for lunch, or what the ‘cool kids’ call “brunch”.

Wikipedia: A meal is not usually considered brunch if it is started before 10:30 am; such meals would still be considered breakfast. Typically brunch is had between 10:30 am and 2 pm, close to lunch time but still before. Brunch is usually eaten in the late morning.

Preparation:

Lightly brush both sides of each bread slice with 2 tablespoons of the oil.
In a wide frying pan, toast bread over medium-high heat, turning once, until browned on both sides about 5 minutes.
Place a slice on each of 4 dinner plates; keep warm.Add 2 tablespoons of the oil to pan; then add onion, asparagus, and ham.Cook, stirring often, until asparagus is tender to bite 5 to 7 minutes.
Evenly spoon asparagus mixture beside bread on each plate; keep warm.
Add remaining 2 tablespoons oil to pan and tilt to coat.
Break eggs into pan and cook until done to your liking about 2 minutes for firm whites and soft yolks.
Place an egg atop asparagus mixture on each plate.
